Which is something close to .660 OPS, then all these guys can provide it. If you're talking about the future Mariner lineup, then yeah, it's not these guys.
Figgins produced 84 last season. It's actually quite a typical season for him. It's just that every other season he adds another 20-30 to that. Cust did 128 just last season. Yeah, he's dropping. But 100? He can do that. Wilson and Carp can hit 95 or more as well. Were talking AAAA, which is just a tad below average, if not average.
I'm not suggesting Ichiro needs to win a batting title. Just give us .375 OBP. Maybe even .370.
The '65 Dodgers won 97 and a World Series with An 89 OPS+. The '59 Chisox won a pennant with an OPS+ of 91. Our pitching is comparable if not superior to these. The '68 Cards won a pennant with a 94.
